1000L FireDefence Firefighting Unit FAQ
Can I use my firefighting unit for other tasks?
Yes absolutely! We encourage the use of other jobs like dust suppression, water cartage and spraying and more.
What is the ball baffle system for?
The ball baffle system sits inside the tank and reduces the surging and sloshing of water as you drive, keeping the unit more stable and safer to tow or transport when full.
How does the bottom fill kit work?
The bottom fill kit lets you refill the tank through a low level fitting connected to a dam, tank or hydrant, rather than lifting the lid and filling from the top.
What maintenance does the pump need?
The Davey fire fighting pump should be flushed with clean water after use in dirty or salty water and checked periodically for wear at the impellor and seals.
